Wishing

that I had time to knit Connie’s gorgeous new pattern the Mountain View Cardigan. When I was in New York in June Connie was working on the linen version of this design.knitting and dancing in central park
She even let me try it on, even though it’s not quite finished or blocked here you can tell how pretty and flattering it is.

Pricing patterns has always been one of the hardest parts of designing and I’ve often felt like the “standard” price of knitting patterns is both lower than other similar products (eg. indie sewing patterns) and doesn’t really reflect the amount of work that goes into them. At the same time, it’s totally fair to worry that rising pattern prices will price people out.
